CAFOD in Leeds

ALT A statue of St. John Vianney wearing traditional religious attire stands inside a white stone structure. The text reads, "The Feast of St. John Vianney. Patron saint of parish priests." The CAFOD logo with the slogan, "A better world needs all of us," appears in the lower-left corner.

ALT "An important thread connecting all our faiths is caring for our common home and protecting those most vulnerable in society. Worldwide, it is estimated that 132 million more people could be pushed into extreme poverty by 2030 because of the devastating impact of climate change. We therefore believe that urgent action on the climate crisis is necessary. If we are to succeed, we must follow the science. We are pleased that the UK Government has followed the scientific advice and that of the Climate Change Committee for this carbon budget. We must do all we can to bring positive change. We urge a strong implementation of this budget and previous ones, so that we can play our part in keeping below the dangerous temperature rises which scientists warn us of, and which we already see around the world mainly affecting those who have done least to cause this crisis. Maintaining a strong trajectory to clean power will protect poor communities suffering from spikes in fossil fuel costs."
